Dear Dad (Kenneth Carl Schuetz)

As of April 5, 1996 you have been gone from us...a long 7 years.

I know you're in HEAVEN talking with your mom (Ann B. Schuetz) and your Dad (Herbert F. Schuetz) and your oldest brother (Norbert Schuetz).

Your other dear children, Dawn M. Schuetz-Verburgt, Jeff C. Schuetz, Denise A. Schuetz-Zubic and myself think about you every day. Even your Dog "Shotzie" misses you and your daily walks in the park.

We miss your funny jokes. Boy how time flies...it feels like just yesterday you were joking with us.

All our Love and God Bless You, your son,

Paulie

Dear Paulie,

One of God's greatest gifts to all of us is the gift of laughter. To miss that aspect of your relationship with your dad testifies to the greatness of the gift and how much a part of a normal grief journey it is to miss that. Next time you hear a funny joke, laugh twice; once for yourself, and once for dad. He will be glad you did.

My best and God Speed Your Grief Journey,

Patrick Dean, MEd, Director
